How to disable SMS popup?

This is a discussion on How to disable SMS popup? within the HTC Incredible Help forums, part of the HTC Incredible Assistance category; Does anyone know how to disable the SMS popup? Text messages popup on the screen even when it's locked. I looked through the settings in ...

I downloaded handcent, which i prefer. But even though i disabled all notifications in the stock app, the popup still shows up and it's definitely a HTC thing.

This is actually something you have to turn off in Handcent. As far as i have seen my texts dont do that and Handcent has a popup feature so maybe you need to turn it off in Handcent.. I honestly think the stock HTC messages app does all i need it to do.

I lover handcent when i had my MOTO Droid but after a day of using the stock app, I love the way its integrated in. I will give the stock app a few more days before I decide to swap.

I loved it on the Droid also but doesn't seem to be useful (to me at least) on the Incredible. The stock app lets you choose from a list of contacts, put a signature, callback number and more. I dont really care what color the LED blinks and i hated the bubbles on Handcent so i always used the stock droid look on Handcent.
